Ruth. Pale Ale. Hair of the Dog. Portland, Oregon.
Winter 2010/11.
My review on RateBeer:
3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
AHTOH (31) - San Diego, USA - JAN 26, 2011
12 ounce bottle poured into Duvel tulip.
APPEARANCE: Pours very light straw yellow. Translucent. White head of about 1 finger is initially somewhat frothy. However, head settles fairly quickly; leaving some thin film of foam atop surface.
AROMA: Grapefruit hops appear most prominent on nose. Some grassy aroma. Faint pine and earthy notes. Subtle malt sweetness. Although largely hidden, there appears a faint scent of dry grainy biscuit as well.
TASTE: Citrus hops on front of palate. Faint honey sweetness on front palate as well. Some grassy hops on mid palate. Light graininess back of palate. Pleasant dose of bitterness on finish with medium length.
MOUTH FEEL: Extremely quaffable. Semi-dry finish.
OVERALL: A solid session ale. Wonderful aroma and taste for the style/ABV.
